[An unusual course of low-malignancy non-Hodgkin lymphoma of the stomach].

We report on a 51-year-old women, who suffered from a low-grade lymphoma of the stomach (MALT-lymphoma) and underwent subtotal gastrectomy in 1991. Two years later she developed a relapse of her MALT-lymphoma. She was treated with two Helicobacter pylori eradication therapies which led to complets remission of the lymphoma. In 1994 she developed a high-grade conchal lymphoma and underwent conchotomy. No moleculargenetic evidence of any relationship between the two lymphomas was found.
